Favorite Commercial Of The Year

In 2013, I didn't really have a favorite commercial, so I dug up my favorite from 2012. It was the commercial for the Obama campaign, calling out Mitt Romney for his attack on Public Television and Sesame Street. Some of this years big headlines in the news, such as Edward Snowden and the NSA spying techniques and Obamacare's misalignment into practical use, have distracted our attention from those who have used elected and appointed position, social or judicial power, invested or borrowed money, and public trust to rob, abuse, and deceive. Any bites taken out of education or learning can only make easier victims out of members of the general population. Shame on anyone who wants to limit or control educational broadcasts for children. While Sesame Street only allowed the Obama campaign to use Big Bird for a couple of days in order to make a point, I think we all need to turn our attention back to the white collar criminals who have real potential to destroy local and national economies and ruin lives. This spoof on Romney remains my favorite commercial.

Romneygate: Why Mitt Hid His Emails

Why do Republicans support Mitt Romney? They flip out all over the place about healthcare reform, calling it "Obamacare", but is the average, brainwashed, sheeplike Republican aware that Mitt Romney attempted to push the same idea through Massachusetts legislation in 2006? In essence, the sheeple scream about Obama because sheep hate the healthcare reform bill, and they listen to Bishop Romney when he says he's got better ideas, but the Bishop's ideas turn out to be the same as Obama's, once we finally find a few of the missing emails from Romney's tenure as governor of Massachusetts!

So this is why Mitt does not want these emails to be found. We finally got our hands on some of them, and he wants to socialize American medicine in a rubber stamp sort of way and be done with it. His ideas about forcing mandatory insurance on the general public is a bit more draconic than Obama's, however; and could even damage the way medicine is practiced in the United States. His one-size-fits-all ideas about the way medicine should be practiced can limit a patient's access to tests for a rare diagnosis and force providers to practice medicine by the rules of an insurance company and not according to the need a patient has for care. Insurance companies already run the "medical industry" we have in this country. Medicine is already "one-size-fits-all". Mitt Romney obviously isn't concerned about the average American.

Here's something else disturbing, involving medicine, that happened in the very state Romney governed. Granted, this did not happen under Romney's watch, but it happened in the wake of the legislation Romney pushed through concerning medicine, insurance, and law. A family law court judge actually ordered a pregnant woman to have a second trimester abortion. That woman had to petition the Supreme Court in Massachusetts for the right to carry her healthy baby to term. Does it sound like Massachusetts has been under the influence of officials who care about human life? Not to me.

Perhaps Mitt Romney's candidacy for president should be put on hold until we have seen all of his hidden emails.
